The late George D. Terry, vice provost and dean of libraries at USC from 19912001, was memorialized April 13 at Thomas Cooper Library during an unveiling ceremony for his portrait on the librarys mezzanine level.
The ceremony, which was attended by more than 100 people, included remarks by President Sorensen, former President John Palms, Paul Willis, dean of libraries, and Columbia artist Larry Lebby, who painted the dry brush watercolor of Terry standing in front of the South Caroliniana Library.
Terrys wife, Lynn Robertson, executive director of McKissick Museum, unveiled the painting. It will remain on the mezzanine level at Thomas Cooper Library until completion of the librarys new Rare Books and Special Collections Wing where it will be displayed permanently.
